LASIK in Los Angeles
How well you see depends on the shape of your cornea, which is the eye's clear covering. In nearsighted people, the cornea is too round. In farsighted people, the cornea is too flat. People with astigmatism have an irregular-shaped cornea. LASIK is used to significantly reduce or eliminate dependence on glasses or contacts by reshaping the cornea so that it can focus light correctly on the retina. LASIK, or laser in-situ keratomileusis, was approved in 1997 by the FDA for the treatment of nearsightedness, farsightedness and astigmatism. More than three million people have had this miraculous procedure, which typically takes fewer than 15 minutes to perform. Beginning in 2003, a new type of laser technology called Wavefront guided LASIK was approved in the US. Wavefront technology has led to more accurate and better visual results than ever before. Wavefront technology gives Dr. Tran the ability to customize your LASIK treatment so that it is just right for you.  During LASIK, the excimer laser is used to gently reshape tissue from the center of the cornea. Dr. Tran uses the IntraLase laser to raise a thin flap of corneal tissue before the laser resculpts the cornea. After the laser portion is performed, the flap is replaced and bonds in place without stitches. Click here to learn about Laser CustomVision.
